A projectile is thrown from the top of a cliff with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 600 up from the horizontal. If the projectile lands 100 m from the base of the cliff how tall is the cliff?
A plane is traveling horizontally at a speed u = 40 m/s at a height h = 100m above ground when it drops a package, as shown in the figure. How long it takes the dropped package to reach the ground and where?
A ball is suspended from a light 1.3 m string . The string makes an angle of 24 degrees with the vertical. The ball is then kicked up and to the right such that the string remains taut the entire time the ball swings upwards. This kick gives the ball an initial velocity of 1.1m/s. What will be the speed, in meters per second, of the ball when it reaches its lowest point (θ = 0)? What will be the maximum angle, in degrees, the string will make with the vertical?

For a forensics experiment, a student decides to measure the muzzle velocity of the pellets from his BB gun. She points the gun horizontally. On a vertical wall a distance 47.3 m away from the gun, a target is placed. The shots hit the target a vertical distance 0.10 m below the gun's barrel. What is the initial speed of the pellets?

Keerat and Jenna are trying to drop a round melon (0.40kg) off the roof of the school 15 m tall onto a target on the ground. To consistently hit the target, they know that they need to create a ramp and let the melon roll from the same spot to get a consistent speed. They do a few trials to find that the melon rolls 5.0 m in an average of 3.4 seconds. How far away should the target be so that the melon hits it?
